Fine. Samba can authenticate against an existing Windows domain.
This is my first time i am going to try this, i want to know if
is posible and wich software i need or where i can find some
information about, i search with google, but all the examples talk
about making freebsd domain member or PDC, is the only way...?
No. But it's very common to make a Unix box a PDC using Samba.
Them if is posible, i will need samba software? Any information
or link are welcome.
www.samba.org?
NOTE: i want to setup this machine and be my backup server on my
Redmond domain, this is way im investigate about this, i think that if
i want to make one Unix system to be my backup system for window
domain system i need to be another client on that domain, im right or
wrong???
You cannot have a Samba box act as a BDC for a Windows PDC, but you can join a
domain as a client, and you can read and backup files on network shares if you
like. However, most people would rather use a Unix/FreeBSD system as a
fileserver rather than some Windows box.
